Well done to Hamish, Blade and Fin who did an awesome job performing the song, The Best Day of our Life, at our weekly assembly today! The boys have been practising for weeks and we look forward to more performances later this year. If you missed it, you can watch their performance below.

Congratulations to all of our students who completed this year’s Premier’s Reading Challenge. A special mention to Noah K, who received a Platinum certificate for his seventh successful year of completing the challenge. Well done!

Thank you to everyone who came along to our CEP Digital Media Festival last week. The event was a great success, with a turnout of over 2,500 community members. Our fundraising stall – popcorn and slushies – raised close to $1000, which goes back towards supporting our creative and performing arts programs.

Our film, The Other Side of the Door, written and created by our students, was enthusiastically received and has helped further cement the festival as a highlight on participating schools’ creative and performing arts calendar.

Earlier this year, many of our top Stage 2 and 3 mathematicians took part in the Mathematics Challenge for Young Australians. During the Challenge, both Noah and Oscar achieved perfect scores earning High Distinctions. Last term they embarked on the next stage (Enrichment) of the program, where they worked through a series of complex multi-layered problems. Congratulations to both Noah and Oscar who received their results today – High Distinctions! Well done.
